Nature Freaks: Talk & Interview (original) (raw)

Centre for Ideas. Unsomnia: Thrive, 2022

Abstract

"Human exceptionalism perpetuated through cultural and institutional systems is killing us, and bringing much of life on Earth down with us." -- Tema Milstein "If we are going to save the planet, Tema Milstein says we need to start hugging trees. Westernised humans tend to believe they are separate from nature, which shapes thinking and actions toward the environment. But seeing the world with humans at its centre has massive ramifications – from climate crisis to mass extinction. What stands in the way of more of us remembering we are embedded in the natural world and its intricate networks? And how do we override anthropocentrism, and start seeing ourselves as one with the flowers?" Talk and interview with Ann Mossop
